This bill mandates the Attorney General of New Jersey to revise the existing law enforcement use of force policy, which has not been updated since 2001. The revised policy must incorporate a range of specific requirements and reforms aimed at ensuring that law enforcement officers prioritize de-escalation techniques and only use force that is proportional to the situation at hand. Key provisions include the obligation for officers to report excessive force, guidelines for the use of firearms, and the necessity for officers to provide medical assistance to injured individuals when safe to do so.

Additionally, the bill emphasizes the importance of fair and unbiased conduct in the application of force and mandates comprehensive training for officers on the revised policy, including considerations for vulnerable populations. The Attorney General is required to publish the updated use of force procedures within seven months of the bill's enactment, ensuring that law enforcement agencies adhere to the new standards and practices.
